Local knowledge
Good to know in Lenton, Radford & Wollaton
Cars that have sat over the holidays
A car left on the street all summer or over Christmas often won't start when term begins. A jump start and a battery test usually sorts it, and if the battery's past saving, we can fit a new one where the car is parked.
Narrow terraced streets
Lenton and Radford streets are tight, with cars parked on both sides. Tell us if you're on a narrow street when you call, and we'll tell you where we'll load from.
Around the QMC and Derby Road
The A52 and the roundabouts by the QMC are busy at all hours. If you break down there and the car will still move, get onto a side road or into a car park, then send us a pin so we can find you first time.

Questions
Lenton, Radford & Wollaton questions
Do you help students?
Yes. The same published prices apply to everyone, and we'll tell you whether it's the battery or something more before you spend anything.
My car's been parked for months. Will a jump start work?
Often, yes. But a battery that's been completely flat for a long time may not hold its charge, so we test it after the jump and tell you honestly whether it needs replacing.
